This research is the first to quantify complex PAH mixtures in NIST SRMs using comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled to time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC×GC/ToF-MS), with and without extract cleanup ...

Filled skutterudites are promising thermoelectric materials due to reduced thermal
conductivity upon inserting a guest atom or 'rattler' into the CoSb₃ structure. By using an
indium rattler dimensionless Figure of Meri ...

Background: There is a long-term interest in running the fission reaction backward, i.e., studying the "inverse fission" of uranium. The recent availability of beams of n-rich fission fragments has stimulated interest in ...

Three features of small-molecule photoelectron spectroscopy are considered (1) The atom from which a photoelectron
is emitted must have a recoil momentum equal to that of the emitted electron. This is shared among the v ...

Complete solid solutions with the composition Na₃M₂₋ₓM’ₓSbO₆ where M, M’ = Cu, Mg, Ni, Zn have been synthesized by conventional solid state techniques and were investigated using X-ray diffraction, magnetism and optical ...

Understanding fundamental uranyl polyoxometalate
(POM) chemistry in solution and the solid state is
the first step to defining its future role in the development
of new actinide materials and separation processes
tha ...

A comparison was made of Al₂O₃ films deposited on Si via prompt inorganic condensation (PIC)
and atomic layer deposition (ALD). Current–voltage measurements as a function of annealing
temperature indicate that the solu ...

The effect of quasi-hydrostatic pressure upon the ferromagnetic ground state of magnetodielectric, double-
perovskite La₂ MnNiO₆ is investigated using x-ray absorption spectroscopy and diffraction measurements in a
d ...

The solid solution of In₂Fe₂₋ₓGaₓCuO₇ (space group P6₃/mmc) was synthesized and investigated through X-ray diffraction and magnetic susceptibility studies. Limited changes to the lattice parameters were observed as a res ...

n-Type In-filled CoSb₃ is a known skutterudite compound that has shown promising thermoelectric (TE) properties resulting in high dimensionless figure of merit values at elevated temperatures. Use in various waste heat r ...

The fission Time Projection Chamber (fissionTPC) is a compact (15 cm diameter) two-chamber
MICROMEGAS TPC designed to make precision cross-section measurements of neutron-induced fission.
The actinide targets are place ...

Hexagonal AMO₂ and AMO₃ phases have the same basic structure, and intermediate compositions for this structure have been prepared by topotactic oxidation of AMO₂ phases such as RCuO₂, where R is a trivalent rare earth ca ...
